Subject: [PATCH] module: initialize module dynamic debug later
Date: Sat, 3 Jul 2010 12:35:28 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <201007031235.29637.rusty@rustcorp.com.au> (raw)
We should initialize the module dynamic debug datastructures
only after determining that the module is not loaded yet. This
fixes a bug that introduced in 2.6.35-rc2, where when a trying
to load a module twice, we also load it's dynamic printing data
twice which causes all sorts of nasty issues. Also handle
the dynamic debug cleanup later on failure.
